Searching for bugs
To help find bugs, some prepared searches have been added in page headers, with more BugzillaReports here
1. Simple search
At the top of the search page choose 'Find a specific bug'
Select a Status and a Product category and enter your search term
2. Advanced search
At the top of the search page choose 'Advanced search'
You can restrict searches by using a selection or multiple selections of a category
Use Control Click to select/deselect from selection sets, if none are selected all are.
typically you may restrict Product to use '7.x/Future/Documentation'
and enter a search term into either 'Summary' or 'A Comment'
eg. Status = CLOSED, Resolution = WONTFIX, Summary = yum
will return about 7 bugs
eg. Status = CLOSED, Resolution = WONTFIX, A Comment = yum
will return about 17 bugs
